The only thing I can be sure you won't get is grey! I have always wanted a solid bay filly but with all greys, no chance, or so I thought! My grey mare with a grey stallion (4 grey grandparents) gave me a solid bay filly, to say I was pleased is an understatement.
I haven't bred her yet (she is 6 this year) but am tempted to try with a black stallion.

I'm hoping for a bay filly but I guess we'll just have to wait and see! |

You can possibly if either parent carrys the black allele, probably unlikely but without colour coat testing you can never be 100% sure. My friend had a black out of a bay mare by a grey stallion, so you never know!! Neither had black in their parentage. |

LOL mogwai - that's as detailed as I get too!

PS Can you really get a black from that combination?

You won't get a grey, as you have to have one grey parent (that's about the extent of my colour genetics knowledge! Oh, and a chestnut and a chestnut will always get you a chestnut baby!).
It will be a loveloy foal, whatever the colour!
